10 Rendezvous I have a rendezvous with Death At some disputed barricade When Spring comes back with rustling shade And apple-blossoms fill the air – When Spring brings back blue days and fair. It may be he shall take my hand And lead me into his dark land And close my eyes and quench my breath – It may be I shall pass him still On some scarred slope of a battered hill, When Spring comes round again this year And the first meadow flowers appear. God knows ‘twere better to be deep Pillowed in silk and scented down, Where love throbs out in blissful sleep, Pulse nigh to pulse and breath to breath Where hushed awakenings are dear……. But I’ve a rendezvous with Death At midnight in some flaming town, When Spring trips North again this year, And I to my pledged word am true, I shall not fail that rendezvous. Alan Seeger
